Several videos circulated on social media showing Mexicans grappling with Ecuadorian fans at the end of their match.
Fans attended the ‘spark-removing’ match between the Central American and South American teams, which determined the second place in Group B.
As you may recall, in this group, Venezuela qualified first after winning all three of its matches, a perfect score that no one expected.
The fans arrived at the stadium with this feeling, worried and anxious, a situation that came to light in a game where there were no goals but there was a maximum of tension.
Mexicans grabbed each other in the stadium
The images are shocking and regrettable, the fans attacked each other with punches and kicks in the stands at the end of the match.
The images do not show the presence of the authorities to control the brawl in a setting where security is a priority.
One of the curiosities, if you can call it that, is that a Mexican fan who got into the fight was knocked out twice.
In the first video, he is seen throwing a punch and receiving another in return that left him groggy. Then, the same man is seen getting into another fight and again, a precise blow sent him to the canvas.
In the end, the Ecuadorians make it to the quarterfinals while the Mexicans return home with the pain of a Copa América in which they had high expectations.
As things stand, there are already quarter-final matches, where Argentina will face Ecuador while Canada will face Venezuela.
